Description Nathan Russell 2004-01-08 05:12:37 UTC
When I emerge tome, the /usr/share/games/tome/apex/scores.raw file is created with owner and group root, rather than both set to games.  This means that my regular user account (which is a member of games, and wheel, but not root) can't save highscores.  I fixed the issue by hand on my own machine (easy enough to do) but it should probably be taken care of in the ebuild.  

I'm setting this to major because it affects saving of highscores; feel free to change it if you disagree.

I can confirm this bug. Another thing the bug does is that it deleted the old scores.raw from tome 2.2.3 on ebuild upgrade and replaced it with an empty one, losing all the old highscores.

ok, 2.2.5-r1 moves the scores.raw to /var/games so that should address both of
these issues
Comment 3 Nathan Russell 2004-01-16 09:30:22 UTC
Any chance of *moving* it, and doing a /bin/chown, rather than creating a new high-score file there and losing the old scores?
